Title: Case study of physiotherapeutic treatment of a patient after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament. Objective: This thesis is a case study of the physiotherapeutic care of a patient who underwent reconstruction surgery of the anterior cruciate ligament. The care occurred during an internship at rehabilitation department at FNHK hospital. The thesis includes a comprehensive theoretical introduction to the subject. Summary: This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part describes the anatomy, kinesiology and biomechanics of the knee joint and various surgical approaches to anterior cruciate ligament plastic surgery. The second part is a case study of physiotherapeutic care of a real patient after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction which lasted nine therapy sessions. The case study concludes with a comparison of the patient's condition before and after rehabilitation, and an evaluation of the effect of the therapy.

Title: Case Study of Physiotherapy Treatment of a Patient with the Diagnosis of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction. Thesis aim: The thesis is split into two parts; 1) Theoretical part. 2) Practical part (Case Study). The theoretical part will show an overview of the anatomy, kinesiology and biomechanics of the knee joint, aswell as how an anterior cruciate ligament injury is commonly obtained, the reconstruction surgery procedure, and the therapy used by the therapist in the rehabilitation process. In the practical part, I shall apply this theoretical knowledge, aswell as the knowledge of examinations and therapies that I have learned during my degree on to a patient with the diagnosis of anterior cruciate reconstruction, analysing the results. Clinical findings: The patient was a 24 year old female, with a diagnoss of anterior cruciate reconstruction of the left knee, performed by an allograft 6 weeks prior. The main clinical findings were a range of motion deficit in the operated knee in both flexion and extension, aswell as general weakening and atrophy of the muscles in this side. Procedures: The procedures used were based on those taught by Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport. These included but were not limited to; post isometric relaxation, joint...
